After Luna's speech, some ponies began to trot home, considering it was 12:30 in the morning. Others crowded around Luna, talking, smiling, and giggling.

Half an hour later, town hall's clock bells, echoing chimes, rang throughout Ponyville. Sunshine Smiles decided to hit the hay. He trotted home, thinking about what had happened earlier that night. He crawled underneath the sheets, and just thought. Trying to remember what had happened when he was a filly, he grew tired, and fell into a deep sleep.

'"Sunshine!!! Time for bed young colt!" Luna called, a warm smile on her face. Celestia trotted into the room quietly, with a colt bounding behind her. "Hey buddy!" Luna spoke to the colt. "Hiya!" he said. Sunshine jumped onto Luna and Celestia's backs. "So, are you ready for a bedtime song?" Celestia asked with a gentle smile. "Okie dokie!" He answered sweetly. The princesses began, they were soft, graceful, and melodic.

You are my Sunshine, my only Sunshine. You make me happy... When skies are grey! You only know how... much that I love you! So please don't take... my Sunshine away!'
